AMN,

Greta speaks the truth. You enrich many, many lives just by being you. I hope you can get past this feeling, hope it's just a letdown feeling after all the excitement that will level off and pass. You are one special chickie and you need to remember that. You have too much to offer to even think of yourself as less than fabulous. You eminate fabulousness, and don't forget it.

Aw, thanks, you guys. Don't worry, I'm not suicidal or anything. I'm not even sad. I'm just sick of this junk in a big way. I'm irritated by this bloody disease and the fact that it's following me around like a shark, always right behind me, nipping off one chunk of my life at a time.

Besides, I'm much too tired to do anything about it now.

Yeah, what they said. And Greta has Yodda to back her up...don't mess with Yodda.

I have a feeling, tomorrow is going to be better for all of us.....If not, I will be pi$$ed again.

Quit telling yourself this is your last trip, Cindy. Maybe it's not. I still believe in miracles.

I'm sorry to hear you are struggling right now, Cindy.

I have gone through many trials and tribulations in my life. Sometimes the difficulties lasted only a few days a month, others for several weeks, and there were times that even lasted a few years.

In fact, it seems the more often I experience hard times and disappointment, the easier it seems to get through it the next time. Then again, maybe that's only because I've always gone for counselling when it dragged out too long.

I always try to tell myself "this is only a moment in time" and "there's a reason ...". Keeping that faith has helped get me through some pretty difficult periods too.

"What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger".

You are just getting stronger, that's all.

Cherie

Hey Cindy, Let's take off to some exotic Isand where they will wait on us hand and foot. A full body massage whenever our bodies call for it. Just dream that we are 100 % again in mind and body. DREAM DREAM I understand how you are feeling. This past week my body has just been on the downward plunge. I have just been crying about everything and nothing and have no desire to get ready for the holiday. The body pains and things I can't do just makes me want to disappear. I actually have even been pushing the puppy aside and not want to do anything with her. I know I have to snap out of it. The loneliness without the love of my life is really getting to me this time. They say time heals well I don't know what it heals because it seems to be getting worse then better. I am just going to have to get my faith back strong again and get on with life with whatever it has for me. As they say (I AM WOMEN AND I AM STRONG) Keep in there Cindy we will make it. HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE Joyce:

I hear you Joyce on missing your soul-mate....Me Too. If it weren't for Paxil, I probably wouldn't have made it through the last few years. This time of year always brings it all back. It was the day after Christmas that he took himself to the hospital, never to return home.

Maybe you could use a little AD help. Ask your Doc about it.

OK, so, Cindylouwho, how is it today?

I kinda forced myself to have a better 'tude today, upon awakening. It almost worked...LOL! I think I need some sunshine. It's been rainy and yucky here this past week. I haven't seen the sun in weeks.

I'm a little less p***ed and a dash more resigned, but not exactly happy as a lark, yet.

Have a nice day with your Dad and Brother, tomorrow. Eat and Drink and be Merry, dammit..

Just another day here, too. It's cold, rainy and trying to snow. We're expecting 1-3 inches by midnight. The ground isn't frozen so it will melt off, I'm sure.

I don't think I have such a bad attitude, I'm just sick of things. Oh, Sal, about the trip thing, I have decided that it's just not worth the effort and money anymore. I will still go to see friends and such within a few hours of home, but national exploration is officially closed for business. That little jaunt was very difficult at times and I now choose not to put the effort into it.

I have to go to a movie today, it's important to me to contribute to the opening day ticket sales, my niece is one of the background vocalists and the more it makes, the more she makes. I'm excited for her.

Hey, Geri, you're actually willing to risk getting bloodied and bruised by coming within our reach? Wow, such commitment!

As a postal person, you may appreciate this (or hate it); I save all business reply envelopes from junk mail and my neighbor kids put messages in them and mail them out. If they can afford to waste their money making me haul more crap to the curb, they can afford to amuse us by sponsoring our effort to make a few lackeys laugh.

Hi, hope you are feeling better...
I suspect quite a few people return those bus. reply enve. empty or with something in them. I have no idea what those companies think about that, but so far....WE HAVEN't GOTTEN A MEMO ON IT!! EVerything else it seems.
Take care.
Hi Beth if you are on here!1
